AUSTIN, Texas — A Texas elementary school named for the top hero of the Confederacy could be renamed after billionaire businessman and Republican presidential front-runner, Donald Trump.
Donald J. Trump Elementary was the most popular suggestion with 45 submissions out of 240 received, Austin Independent School District officials said.
With 34 submissions, the second-most popular suggestion was to keep the name as it is.
Other popular namesakes included author Harper Lee and artists Russell Lee and Elisabet Ney. Willie Nelson, Spike Lee and Stevie Ray Vaughn also received votes.
The Texas capital's school board voted last month to replace the Confederate general as the school name. It could decide on a new name May 23.
